Need a drink that sparkles, but want to skip the alcohol? This Pomegranate Lime Mocktail shines with a gorgeous red colour, bright flavours and light effervescence, making it a special choice for parties, gatherings or just because!

A glass of alcohol-free Sparkling Pomegranate Lime drink sits on a mirrored bar cart, surrounded by a fresh pomegranate, cut lime and sprigs of fresh mint.

This Sparkling Pomegranate Lime Mocktail is as beautiful as it is delicious. With its gorgeous red colour, this drink is well suited to the Christmas season, but it’s actually my official drink of winter. After all the parties of the holiday season, I crave clean and light flavours and lots of hydration, so you’ll find me sipping this pomegranate drink from the new year until at least spring. The ingredients are easy to keep on hand and the result is beautiful, leaving me feeling like I’ve done something special for myself. Fresh pomegranates are in season through until the end of January or so, but the year-round availability of pomegranate juice makes this sweet-tart sipper a hydrating option any time of year. Made with coconut water, bottled pomegranate juice, fresh lime and soda water, this non-alcoholic drink is the perfect balance of tart and sweet. This sipper is a great option any time you feel like making yourself something a little special, but this easy mocktail is also ideal for Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s parties or anytime you want a celebratory drink that doesn’t contain alcohol. Light, hydrating and bursting with fresh fruity flavour, this sparkling mocktail recipe is a crowd-pleasing option for celebrations – or just because you deserve something special in your glass.

Three glasses of Pomegranate Lime Mocktail are garnished with fresh mint, lime wheels and pomegranate arils. The glasses sit together on a mirrored bar cart, which shows their reflection.

What goes in a Pomegranate Lime Mocktail?

This Sparkling Pomegranate Lime Mocktail is made with just a handful of simple, refreshing ingredients that come together beautifully.

Pomegranate Juice: Bottled pomegranate juice is often available in the produce aisle or in the refrigerated cases at the grocery store. This ruby coloured juice gives this mocktail its vibrant red colour and signature sweet-tart flavour. (That gorgeous red colour really does make this drink perfect for holiday celebrations, Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s parties!)
Coconut Water: Coconut water adds light hydration and a subtle natural sweetness.
Lime Juice: Quality ingredients matter, especially in simple recipes where each flavour is allowed to shine. For this mocktail recipe, use freshly squeezed lime juice instead of the bottled variety for the brightest flavour.
Soda Water: This mocktail is finished with sparkling water for a crisp, bubbly lift.
Mint Sprigs, Lime Wheels and Pomegranate Arils (optional): While completely optional, garnishes such as fresh mint, lime wheels and pomegranate arils elevate this mocktail with a pop of colour and a touch of elegance. Go ahead and add at least a lime wheel, because you deserve gorgeous things!
